Beware Of Scam Messages

Nationally, the Credit Union has received a number of reports recently of members receiving SMS messages purporting to come from the Credit Union which advise that their account requires verification or unblocking and inviting them to follow a link.

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT:

• The credit union will never contact you by text or email asking you to click a link to verify your account
• The Credit Union will never contact you and ask you for a code
• If anyone asks you to provide them with a code that has been sent to your phone, it is a scam
• Emails or SMS messages claiming that your account is locked or blocked are fake
• Messages that claim urgent action is required are generally fake
• Never click on links in messages. Always manually enter a web address into the address bar of your browser.
